I am sure there are scores of things to learn from the amazing athletes: BabarAzam

The Pakistani pair will join a long list of elite athletes who have already taken the path. Kaka, Edwin van der Sar, Gerard Pique, and Oliver Kahn are among the football players on the list, as are Dirk Nowitzki, Chris Paul, and Paul Gasol from the NBA. Here's what both said.

"It is a huge honour to represent Pakistan on such a prestigious global stage. We are going to the BEMS program at Harvard to learn from the best of the best in the world – both in terms of faculty and program fellows – and at the same time to share our journey and learnings with everyone. I am certain that this will be an exciting journey, and I look forward to sharing our learning and experiences with the next superstars of the cricket world," said Rizwan, the number two men’s T20I batter of the world.

“I am a lifelong learner and I have had detailed chats about this program with Prof Elberse and Rehmani. My inspiration for joining this world-class program at Harvard is to connect, explore, listen, learn, grow, and give back to the community worldwide. I am sure there are scores of things to learn from the amazing athletes and top business executives from the entertainment, media, and sports industries who are coming from corners of the world," said Babar.
